The real reason he had decided to leave the dinner earlier was because Song Xiangsi, the mad woman, had come over to gossip about his feelings.

At that time, he was already in a foul mood, and when he left, it suddenly started to rain, causing him to remember the past, further affecting him. Subconsciously, he was on his way to Mian Xiu Garden.

Ever since five years ago, Lu Jinnian had never dared to show any signs of his feelings. However, he didn't feel like not replying to her second question as talking to her had always been a blessing to him.

He hesitated, finding a conventional answer. "I have something on later so I came back earlier."

Lu Jinnian's second sentence came about a minute after the first one so when he suddenly continued, Qiao Anhao had a doubtful expression. Turning to look at him, she realized that he was replying to her second question, so she nodded hurriedly, acknowledging his response. After awhile, she replied with a "oh" sound.
